Gmail has recently changed its inbox again. Now you’ll see three default tabs that categorize your emails. Problem is, it is automatic and at times you’ll find that you want some particular email to be displayed in Primary tab so that you can easily see it. In this quick tutorial I’ll show you how to move mails to Primary tab from other tabs in new Gmail.
Lets say you checked the Promotional tab. Now Promotional tab filters and keeps all the promotional emails in it. It saves your inbox to be flooded with promotional offers from , Flipkart and other shopping portals. What if you find a good deal here. You may want it in Primary tab so that you won’t forget to recheck it. But unlike labels (where you could move mails from one label to other), tabs do not behave the same way. You won’t really see an option of moving the mails to Primary Tab (or any other tab), well, not directly. Keep calm! I got the trick to do it.
Move mails to Primary Tab in new Gmail:
The trick here is to put a star to the desired mail which you want to be displayed in Primary tab. Usually, it is enabled by default but it’s better to ensure it.
Log in to your Gmail account. In the inbox, click on the plus (+) sign besides the tab headers.
This creates a new tab. You don’t have to create a new tab just verify that Include starred in Primary has been checked.
Now when you star any mail in any tab, it will automatically be displayed in Primary tab. Easy peasy. Wasn’t it? Hope it helps you to in getting used to of the new Gmail inbox. Comments, suggestions are welcomed. Ciao
